Hint: Rajput (from Sanskrit raja-putra, "son of the king") is a huge multi-ethnic group composed of castes, relatives and local groups. It has social status and a family tree ideology that originated in the Indian subcontinent. Brahmans are Vedic works of the Vedic attached to the Samhitas of Rigs, Sama, Yajur and Atharva Vedas. They are the second level or classification of Sanskrit texts embedded in each Veda, and usually explain and guide the performance of the Brahmin regarding Vedic rituals.

Complete answer:
In 1922, the third land settlement agreement was reached in Alwar, abolishing the special tax rights granted to Rajputas and Brahmanas. Farmers in Neemuchana are not satisfied with this solution. Rajputas brothers Neemuchana and Gazi ka Thana complained to residents. About 800 people gathered in Neemuchana for discussion. Army Commander Chajju Singh ordered fire on the crowd. 156 people were killed and 600 injured. Gandhiji called this massacre in his newspaper "Young India" as "Dohori Dyershahi" or "Double Dyarism".

Young India is a weekly English paper or journal published by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi from 1919 to 1931. [1] Gandhi wrote various quotations in this magazine, which inspired many people. He used "Young India" to disseminate unique thoughts and thoughts on the use of non-violent behavior in organizational movements, and urged readers to consider, organize and plan for India's eventual independence from Britain.

Hence, the correct answer is option (C).

Note: In 1933, Gandhiji began to publish the weekly newspaper Harijan in English. Harijan means "man of God" and is also Gandhi's name for untouchable castes-lasting until 1948. During this period, Gandhi also published "Harijan Bandu" in Gujarati and "Harijan Sevak" in Hindi. All three papers focus on social and economic issues in India and the world.
